In early September, culinary initiatives in the Safor and Vinalopó regions of Spain focused on promoting local products. Events such as ‘La Quincena de la Cigala’ in Gandia highlighted artisanal fishing by featuring local langoustine in restaurant menus, while the ‘Menjars de la Terra’ program showcased bagged table grapes from Vinalopó to emphasize agricultural traditions.

By late September, the focus shifted to various gastronomic and cultural festivals within the Valencian Community. These included the 38th Oktoberfest in La Nucía, which features German cuisine, and the second edition of Porró Fest in Dénia, which celebrates local traditions. Additionally, the D*na Festival in Dénia provided a platform for the wine-producing municipality of Requena to showcase local cavas and pastries to culinary figures and authorities.
